Andorra's "#Naktro91" tops the remaining 201 players at the end of Day 1 in the WCOOP-92-M: $1,050 PLO [6-Max, PLO Main Event].

"#Naktro91" is in pole position to win his second WCOOP title of the year, taking down WCOOP 05-H: $2,100 PLO [6-Max], $275K Gtd last month which netted him a five-figure score of $72,203. Other players who survived to make Day 2 include Benjamin "bencb789" Rolle who was the only PokerStars Ambassador to progress after both Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis and Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot fell at the final hurdle. The likes of Ka Kwan "kaju85" Lau and Ola "Odd_Oddsen" Amundsgard also made it through to tomorrow's actions as top 10 chip stacks.
Day 1 ended after 15x20 minute levels, with Day 2 resuming on Monday, September 13 at 5:10 p.m. GMT. Monday will see the tournament play down to the final 18 players, before a winner is crowned on Day 3 which starts on Tuesday, September 14.

turn ended any sweat and the 
river confirmed a Day 2 place for "Lokfable"
